Fourth Sunday of Easter
O God, whose Son Jesus is the good shepherd of thy people;
Grant that when we hear his voice we may know him who
calls us each by name, and follow where he doth lead;
who, with thee and the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth, one
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Preface of Easter
But chiefly we are bound to praise thee for the glorious
resurrection of thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord; for he is the
very Paschal Lamb, who was sacrificed for us, and hath
taken away the sin of the world; who by his death hath
destroyed death, and by his rising to life again hath won for
us everlasting life.
